  • Publication number: 20240087255
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus generates an image to be displayed on a display device that is mountable to a head of a user, decides an operation mode of an application, and accepts an input operation from a mobile terminal that the user is capable of holding and operating, and perform an application operation on the basis of the operation mode and the input operation. The information processing apparatus decides at least one of a first operation mode, in which the application operation is performed by the user operating the mobile terminal, and a second operation mode, in which a virtual user interface (UI) relating to an operation is displayed on the display device and the application operation is performed by the user operating the virtual UI, as the operation mode.
